Description

"The Longest Yard" features Hollywood royalty… such as Sandler… Reynolds… Cromwell and Rock… But, within all the hoopla, you see an overweight Italian type who is hilarious! His name…. JOEY "COCO" DIAZ. Joey has been seen in "Spiderman II" in the climactic train scene, standing up for Spiderman. Also as Queen Latifah's boss, Freddy, in the action packed comedy "Taxi." Other appearances include "Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star" and a scene stealing performance in "Analyze That." Not to mention, he also appeared in Rodney Dangerfield's last film, "Back By Midnight." Joey is an accomplished stand-up comic of twelve years, who has performed in clubs from coast to coast. He has an R-rated look at life. TV credits include FOX's "Mad TV" with Joey "CoCo" performing a spoof of the "Sopranos." He also appeared on HBO's "Arliss" with the late, great, James Coburn… "Respect!"
